I'm a runner but my husband found your channel & now I'm ADDICTED!! I love watching you, the way you are with your family & True Love!! "Go True Love" Go True Love!!
You are such an inspiration! I got back to running after taking break from it, for three years. This channel and your positive energy was one of my referrals for guidance. Thank you Seth, and I am thankful to the whole community.
QD: I started running this year and I was looking for the best shoes to start with, I don't remember the first video I watched but I remember that I was immediately drawn to your content and watched a few non related videos with what I was searching for but I found out something better than I was looking for. I found Seth, a family man that loves running and is such an inspiration to me and other runners one of the best examples of how human behavior should be!! Congratulations Seth!! Love from Portugal, keep strong! ✌🏻
QD: I was actually looking for Faith content on UA-cam and saw a video that you did a while back about cycling across the US. It led me to this channel. I had just started running again and it just clicked.
stuart simpson definitely lots to learn for sure, as seth says.... trail marathons are totally different to roads! I’ve made a mental note not to have a gel before!
I think I'm the only Finnish guy in the DGR :) Btw, the Finnish language doesn't have prepositions. So even technically DeMoor couldn't be Finnish. A lot of Finnish surnames end with -nen. Hence, in Finnish he would be called Muurinen, like the ex-soccer head coach of Finland Antti Muurinen. Seth DeMoor would be Seppo Muurinen in Finnish.
Baltsu Very cool, I had no idea. I think I remember him saying his name dates back to Denmark? Either way I had to seize the opportunity to jump on that joke. 😀 🇫🇮
@@briano9879 for me De Moor sounds like a Dutch or Flemish name. When we think about the fact that Dutch always have been sailors then it is not a surprise to see a name with mooring. Danish names had the Scandinavian tradition where the surname comes from father's first name. So they normally are something like Andersen, Nielsen, Sørensen etc.
Question of the day. Just a few days ago, maybe a month... I was, and I still aming to buy a good pair of shoes and I saw your channel... started to watch more of your videos and just felt in love with your energy. Everybody can see and tell when we meet humble people, and for sore you are one. Stay strong, stay positive... Share your love for life, family and the sport that you practice, be your self, be you, be the butter on your bread
I started watching in October of 2018, back when I was a Junior in highschool just getting into XC. Been quite the journey. Unfortunately I haven’t run in almost 2 months, just injury and demotivation, and I haven’t even watched the channel in about a month, but this inspires me to get out there and run again!
I have been a subscriber for over a year. I have no idea exactly how I got to this page. I believe it was from a rabbit hole I followed from Sage Canaday’s page. I will say, this is a more global, friendly, and consumer focused channel. My favorite running UA-cam channel right now!
QD: started getting back into running about 6 months ago and was looking for shoes to start out with on the trails. Found your video on the wildhorse 5’s and got hooked after that. Keep up the hard work Seth and you will continue to be blessed. Keep buttering those Bobo’s 🧈🍞
It made my day yesterday! I was so happy...you would have thought that I won the race. I found this channel a LONG time ago....close to the beginning. When you come out to Cali to run the Marathon....you should ROCK that course since its a downhill profile...Olympic Qualifier for you. Congrats on Pikes, love the channel and keep on buttering the Bread. Stay safe out there...and Hi to true love and the kids !!! Take care
QD: in may, the Runner’s knot video. Just started with running and saw this guy full of energy talking about shoes. I had to see more and haven’t stopped since.
Last year was my first year of cross country as a sophomore in High school and i ended up being a natural at it, running 20:00s and running 19:02 for our JV district race. For my first year, I was the JV captain and this surprised me, because I didn't sign up for cross country, the coach scouted me from baseball. I wanted to become better, because I felt that God put this opportunity in my hands so I started watching running videos, and yours were so helpful that I became a subscriber and have been watching for almost a year.
A few months ago I was searching for how to help my plantar fasciitis and found this channel and must’ve spent the whole day watching different videos and now I watch them daily
QD: I found your channel about a year ago Seth, I dont remember how many subscribers had then, but man I am happy that I did, you've taught us as runners so much and its a pleasure to be in your life "virtually". Thanks for all you do!
QD: I found your channel a few years ago! I ran the ascent in 2015. A few years later I was trying to find a video to show my friends what the trail was like. I stumbled upon your video and I’ve been following your journey since. The announcer for the race is a family friend. I’ve volunteered as part of his crew for several years and it’s always exciting to watch you cross the finish line at the top. Way to crush it this year on the marathon! Congrats on 100k.
QD- I found this channel back in february this year. I was searching for a review of the Nike Infinity Run and then stumbled over your vlogs. Since then I ran almost 1000 km and watch your videos as my daily motivation. I just started running in november of 2019 and now I am training for my first marathon next year! Greetings from Germany!
Dude Seth, Don't worry about "bragging"!!!! We LOVE hearing about how excited you are after seeing the results of all your hard work!! This is a MAJOR accomplishment and you should "brag"/feel good about it all you want! You deserve it!!!!!!!! Super happy for you!!!! Keep on being you and keep on inspiring the masses!!!!
QD - I found this channel when I was searching to buy running shoes as I started getting into running myself. But what keeps me watching your videos is your genuine passion for the sport. That’s some thing I want to instill in myself.
Congrats Seth ! About 6 months now ... shoes, running motivation, staying up late ... you and Kofuzi have been amazing during pandemic times... inspiring me to run and stay motivated !
So oddly enough my wife introduced me to you when she was training for her half. We watched one of the original vlogs about mapping your training plan. A short time later I was looking for drone reviews and your channel came up. I haven’t left sir, thank you for the day to day content. I don’t finish a day without catching it. 2.5 years in and can’t wait to see what’s to come! Congrats!
QOD: I don’t know how many subscribers you had at the time, but it was a few weeks/months leading up to the Amsterdam Marathon. I am, seriously, so happy to have bumped into your channel Seth. Your reviews and your tips and your knowledge are what this running needs-wannabe needed from day one. I’ve been running since January of 2014 with a long break while pregnant w a giant baby & then bc of injury. Your videos have taught me A LOT and have fuelled me when my morale is kind of low. I love all of the content through all your social media and I am incredibly thankful for you and your family for sharing your journey with us all. So, yeah, let’s hope that I can, some day, have the incredible luck and fortune to join you and the community in one of your pre-race group runs be it here in Europe or in the States. Congratulations on a very well deserved victory and on breaking the 100k subscriber mark. Here’s to many 100k’s more 🥂🍾
Nov 2019. Was struggling to find shoes and was working through Achilles pain and found your vlog. By Dec of 2019, I was watching the vlog as I stretched and rolled out to loosen up my knee. Been almost daily since then. Love the vlog, the life stuff, and you general positivity and energy. You’re inspiring on many levels!
QOD: I'm 38, and I decided to take up running in January, so I came to youtube looking for any and all advice and tips I could find. And I stumbled across your vlogs and I've been a fan and follower ever since. Your enthusiasm and love for running is contagious and I owe my running progression to you, Seth! I'm still a greenhorn, but seeing you win Pikes Peak is a such a big motivator to keep pushing and keep digging! Onward and upward!!
I came across your CH via searching for the right way to run, breath, stretching for running etc etc. and then came to your CH, and I initially just had to shut you down. but then I came back because your energy is energy after all, and who better to listen to than someone who has ENERGY, so then I found you out again because you stuck in my head for some reason, and now, I've sat here all day trying to work while watching your vids. So, hardly working, but learning as much as I can. So for that - thank you ! Im not running to compete with my community on times, I am just running because I love it. Of course, hate it at the last kilometre, but I do my best and try to recall everything you and others like you share with us while out on the run. Thanks once again
QD: I started running last fall. Being a larger guy, with bad feet, I was looking for all the information I could get about running and shoes. That's when I came across your channel. Running has now become my church and gets me away from all the negative stuff going around. If it wasn't for running I’m not sure I would have gotten through the COVID restrictions. I look forward to your positive attitude everyday. Congratulations for your Pikes Peak WIN! I may or may not have gotten a little emotional watching the video.
Total inspiration! Looking at shoe reviews about 6 months ago but felt the channel was like a motivational community. Living in Scotland it’s easy to talk yourself out of getting the trainers on in winter, then I notice you out in the snow and realised there’s no excuse. Keep it up, the honesty about how you feel really connects with me.
not sure when, but you had under 1000. Don't recall why I clicked, but once I did I was hooked. your personality and approach to life was so enjoyable and even though you are a vey talented runner, you are never exclusive or condescending, you know that runners come at all levels of ability and it does not make them "less" of a runner. And watching your personal running journey, as all runners who stick with are truly on a journey was addicting.
My boyfriend found you when he was looking up running shoe reviews a few months ago. We stayed for your attitude, light, and motivation. Also, True Love is my role model now. :)
Found your channel after I ran the Pikes Peak Ascent last year and was searching for Pikes Peak videos on YT. Been watching daily ever since! Congrats on the W for the PPM and achieving one of your life long dreams. I first ran my first Ascent in 1987 and have no doubt you have a real shot at breaking Matt Carpenters's records. Keep working hard and thank for the inspiration you provide all of us!
Found your page when I was looking up how to overcome IT band pain. I binge watched your videos for 3 months before the Disney World marathon. I've been hooked ever since watching, and learning from you.
QD: I think I started watching from about 10 months ago. After Kipchoge ran the unofficial new world record for the marathon on these crazy shoes, I was intrigued by what impact running shoes can have on performance. From there on I searched for running shoes reviews on UA-cam and found your channel. Your enthousiasm made me even more excited, and I haven't missed a single vlog since!
I found this channel about two years ago but I don’t think I subscribed until a year later. I was plagued with running injuries in 2018 and your tips were very helpful in helping me have an injury-free 2019 and 2020! Thank you Seth!
I found the channel early summer of 2019. Had followed Ginger Runner for a while and came across your vlog and was hooked from the first episode that I found. Being a daily vlog was huge for me... the daily inspiration and your positive attitude have kept me a member of the DGR family. I’ve not missed an episode in over a year! Keep up the great work Seth. Glad to support you and the channel!
Your channel found me, actually. Last year I was looking for information on running my second marathon. Since then I watch your videos whenever I can. Interesting, informative AND entertaining 😀 Keep up the good work! Kudos for your perfect race 👍 Peter from Germany here
After your running career the ballett is waiting...nice pirouette... Came across your vlog's 6 months ago... Your energy is conducive to others. Great job...
So grateful to watch the daily training and life of an elite athlete like you Seth! You earned this!Blessings from Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island. Canada.
My first vlog was "How to Run Faster: Threshold Training is KEY", I found it searching for videos about threshold runs. Bingewatched a lot of your old vlogs until I started watching them every day.
...found it in your build up to Amsterdam marathon and I was looking for running shoe reviews...I stayed because of you're energy and professionalism, you and kofuzi are like the dcrainmaker of running, awesome human beings and so knowledgeable and accessible about running 💪
QD: found you just after Amsterdam! Was searching UA-cam for training tips and info about the marathon racing experience and since ran my first half marathon distance and planning to run a unofficial marathon by the end of the year!
I was out on a long run, with a team mate, and he spoke highly of your input: Just before lockdown, I was training for the Manchester marathon but got injured 4 weeks before after a 20 mile race (old footballing injury - anterior cruciate). Obviously, the pandemic put a stop to the marathon anyway. I contemplated wrapping up. However, since having a hiatus at work and watching your channel the buzz is back - I did 16.42 in a 5k Time trial (previous 17.30) and last week 35.10 in a 10k (previous 37.45). Many thanks, Seth for your positive vibes that permeate back here in England.
QD: First seen the blog about 3 months ago, so been a big help through COVID and working from home. I'm from the UK, have got into running for the last 6 or 7 years or so, watching videos from Ben Parkes, Running Channel, etc...and run in Nike Pegasus (recently got 36's)...so either of those things may have led to your UA-cam videos! But I also come out to work near Fort Collins most years, so love seeing the Colorado mountains etc. (And my wife is also just completed Couch to 5k program too!) Love that your videos are really "You", love for your family and area of the world. Even for us slower runners, you are a real inspiration. Recover well and dream big dreams...we'll be watching and cheering you (all) on!
QD: I found your channel about 10 months ago.you are an inspiration for so much people all over the world..Seth I have so much respect for you...greetings from San Salvador
QD: I found your channel while watching the New York City Marathon live trying to find my co worker in the race. I started running 2 years ago when my sister in law wanted to get back into running after having a baby. I did my first 5k with her. I never thought I would be a runner. I have struggled with it all my life and hated running the mile in middle school because I was always last. I gave my self a challenge and wanted to prove to myself that I could do it. It is a slow process but I am working my way up to a half marathon. I watch almost every video to inspire me to just get out the door and do it. Some days I don’t feel like going but watch a vlog and that gets me out the door. Congrats on Pikes Peak!
QD: Found you around the time the pandemic started. Was just searching some trail running videos and your channel popped up! I’ve watched every single video since. Look forward to watching a new video everyday during breakfast.
Been watching for at least 6months, maybe longer. I was looking for shoe reviews and saw one of your vlogs. Never looked back. Thank you, from the UK 🏴
I first watched this youtube channel in December of 2018. I remember looking up on youtube the best shoes of 2018, and sure enough a vid of you came up that said "Make Your Case: Best Running Shoe of 2018" and I watched it and thought "huh this guy seems to know a lot about running shoes". Back then you were around 7,000 subscribers! And from then, I would start to watch your vids periodically, and after some time I finally subscribed, somewhere around 8,000 or so. Glad I was apart of your journey to 100,000!!
qod : been here from around 14k viewers. was looking for info on running shoes. found (the pretty girls of) Jamison Micheal, Ginger Runner, Kofuzi and you. Nice to see you're still FLOATING after the win. This is one that will live with you for the rest of your life.
QD. Preparation for the Amsterdam marathon, searching for training/information and your name came up. Been following since then. Huge congrats on the Pike's peak marathon win. Very well deserved and a testament to all your efforts this year.
QD: I started running October 2018. At that time, running was really new to me. I never really did any structured running prior to this. I found your channel simply by searching UA-cam for running advice. Boy am I glad to have found you! I have continued watching ever since. I appreciate the home grown approach. Nothing too commercial like. Just sound running tips and advice. I think True-Love also makes this channel better. Keep doing what you're doing. You're an inspiration for many!!!
QD: I came across this channel when you only had about 15-20k followers and I believe I was searching shoe reviews and I watched a few of your videos and was hooked and inspired to really dive deep back into running.
I started watching last year during your ramp up for Amsterdam. I think you were nearing 50k subscribers. Discovered the vlog when searching for Hoka Rincon reviews. I was hooked by your overall enthusiasm for running, family and community. Hardly miss a day watching.
First found the channel on January 20 with Marathon Training (the 2 hour principle), followed by the How to Run Faster series, then I found the running shoe questions: road shoes and then same for trail shoes. What a ride, congrats SJD
QD - found this channel around October of last year. When I decided I would begin training for a 50mile ultra (this October). I hadn’t ever even run a marathon yet. My first marathon was the DGR Virtual in April! Cheers!
Seth: "I hope I'm not bragging" He's honestly one of the most humble people out there for sure. QD: I may have seen a few of your videos earlier but I started watching more regularly and subscribed around the end of 2019 or early 2020. I probably found the channel watching a video about some type of training suggestion or a review on a certain shoe
Seth! I met you when you came to Green Bay on your biking tour. Years later I was getting into UA-cam with Casey Neistat’s vlog and I remembered you and searched to see if you had a channel and caught you pretty early on your daily vlog. You’ve come a long way!!
The Daily Damien Hi Damien, remember when we use to message Seth about coffee & the Aero Press? It was a small family of subscribers back then....less than 300. Hope all is well with you and your beautiful family. Carol
Midway LOL Hey! Yes! I sure do! I think about some of those vlogs when he was considering quitting vlogging. Now look! I hope you and your are well! We’re very well... gearing up for school. Starts tomorrow!
I’m new to the channel after only recently getting back into running and I seem to be going through your whole back catalogue of vids. Watching has reignited my passion for running and I’m doing my first marathon next year.
I think I originally stumbled onto the channel when trying to compare Nike trail shoes and preparing for my first 50k trail race. UA-cam continued to suggest the channel and I just continued to follow you daily. Here since 30k followers or so.
QOD: I found this channel almost a year ago. Someone on the Slowtwitch triathlon forum mentioned it so I checked it out. I enjoyed Seth's energy and the fantastic running footage (especially the trail runs) and how the videos were put together. Other than watching an occasional shoe review video, I'm not too much into running-focused UA-cam channels but I watch this one pretty much every day.
Covid and closed gyms got me hooked on running. Loosing some weight along the way is a big bonus as well. Found your channel while searching for shoes that considered. Now I watch most of your videos, keep up the good work! Big ups from Norway
Congratulations Seth, you've worked so hard for this. Truly inspirational. QD: A friend at a running group I attended mentioned your videos about a year ago and I've been watching ever since.
I‘ve been watching your videos for about two years now- not regularly, but still quite often and out of mere interest. I didn’t even run myself at that time. But since I started running myself only last winter, I can now rewatch all of it and see it with completely different eyes. Which is quite strange. Btw: You helped me out a lot, especially in my first weeks of running. Thank you so much for your awesome work and effort! Greetings from Bavaria!
I had a really good day on the marathon. Especially on the downhill which has been weak for me. Shaved 2 hours off my last time in 2018. Really inspired when I saw you on the way down and someone made a comment that you had a you tube channel. I found it researching 'Downhill running techniques.' Great work!!
QD - discovered your channel about 2 months ago as I was planning a new cycle of training and looking for tips and ideas. Ever since I’ve been adding 2 hour mid-week runs 3 times/month! I ran a 5k trail race today and thought about your mantra - eyes up, pump arms, quick feet. I also watched your live stream yesterday while driving up to the mountain - congrats on 100k!!
I discovered your channel during the lockdown. My gym was closed so thought I'd do more running instead. I then became intrigued about trail running and ultramarathons after watching some videos on UA-cam, and the UA-cam algorithm must have suggestions one of yours. I can't remember which one, but I really like the enthusiasm, the openness, and the content is great too!
QD Just found this channel searching for shoe reviews. I was preparing to hike the grand canyon and my feet were needing something new... But this channel is so fun, I just keep clicking the next video!
QOD: I think I stumbled across you last October searching for how to run faster or how to breath while running videos lol I was only 2-3months in as a runner. Definitely learned a lot watching your videos. Congrats on the Win and 100k subscribers! Well deserved, hands down the best running content on UA-cam.
After a race it’s fun to sit around and talk about it. I love hearing your thoughts. You put in the work and then you did so well. I’m enjoying the moment with you.
QD: 2-3 months ago and I was looking for resources on running a mile as I was training for my first mile race in 25 yrs. My first vlog was you running your mile time trial on your birthday. I also bought the Saucony Endorphin Speed given your review and could not be happier with them. HUGE CONGRATS SETH AND TRUE LOVE!
Found the channel about a year and a half ago. Random training vlog popped up on my feed just from other running content I suppose. Found the channel to be so refreshing so it didn't take me long to subscribe!
QOTD: I discovered it after the Cirque Series - Snowbird race last year (2019). It took me nearly 4 hours to finish it. I can't remember how I actually stumbled on the channel, but I know you had won it. I was just getting into running at that time so I probably was reading up on some forum after the results. Stoked to be a part of this tough, your energy and optimism are extremely contagious and have motivated me to lace up the shoes on several occasions!
Want to say I started watching around the pandemic or so?! So not long but so happy I found it! I believe it showed up as a random suggestion based off other things I was watching! Love the info you share but more importantly the energy and positivity!
QD: Around a year ago I was searching for ankle rehab advice and came across your video of 5 exercises on the blue physio cushion. I still do these exercises before runs and I’ve barely missed a video since. Well done on the win and reaching 100,000 subs.
Congrats on the amazing results (Pikes Peak and 100k)! Found the channel a couple of years ago when I came back to running after a 17 year absence due to falling out of love with it in high school. First found it when looking at trail shoe reviews when I first started buying kit, but the variety of the content kept me coming back to this channel over other some others. The energy and enthusiasm that you have for your running and your youtube family and the honesty that you portrait it with is inspiring.
Found this channel while searching reviews for vaporfly 4% flyknit last 2018. And I found more than a shoe review. Inspiration, motivation, training knowledge/principle. Thank you Seth!
Congratulations Seth! I can’t think of anyone who deserves this accomplishment more than you. You are one of the most powerful and positive influences in the running/fitness community. I ran up Barr Trail on the 22nd from Manitou to the Peak. My time was 4 hours and it was one of the hardest runs of my life. Really looking forward to applying everything you teach on one way or another through my training process. Hopefully next year I can cut my time down by an hour with all your tips and positivity in mind!
QD: About two years ago, I saw your review of the baby blues and I just happened to have the same shoes, I watched some other videos, and here I am, incorporating your videos into my daily routine. Heartfelt thanks for your truly astonishing work!
QoD: my first VLOG was the Nike Peg36 Trail review. I saw the shoes on the Nike store and searched for reviews on UA-cam and cam across your channel. Your positivity for running came across and I have watched ever since. 👍
Wow Seth, I saw your splits on Strava and was astonished at the pace you maintained. Inspirational. Well done, and congrats to you on accomplishing a lifelong dream. I grew up in Co Springs so that area will always have a special place in my heart. So cool to see you dominate and cash in on all the hard work you've been putting in! SALUTE. Much respect.
I started watching for training for the run rabbit run 100...I was interested in that race, so started watching your training tips....been a loyal watcher since that race.
QD: Good Job Seth!!! I found the channel in late 2018 when you published the runners knot video, I watched the vlog for about a month after that. But recently in early 2020 I rediscovered the channel because I was looking for running shoe review videos.
Seth you're an absolute machine. What a race. Super cool to bring the Pikes Peak trophy to Denver! QD: I found this channel last year August, pretty sure I was searching for mountain running content as I had just gotten into running and knew there were awesome trails near me. I know that your videos of running 14ers and the insights into your training are what hooked me to stick around.
QD: I found the channel in January of this year, just ahead of my first full marathon. Was looking for content to help me know what to expect and came across your Amsterdam Marathon videos. Hooked ever since! Thanks for all the great content and insight!
QD: yourself and Sage Canaday are my go to running channels; you must have been put into my UA-cam algorithm as I watched more of sages videos. I subscribed during your coverage of the Olympic trials.
QD: About 3mo ago. Started for the shoes, stayed for the bread.
Best way to say it
I'm a runner but my husband found your channel & now I'm ADDICTED!!
I love watching you, the way you are with your family & True Love!!
"Go True Love"
Go True Love!!
You are such an inspiration! I got back to running after taking break from it, for three years. This channel and your positive energy was one of my referrals for guidance. Thank you Seth, and I am thankful to the whole community.
QD: I started running this year and I was looking for the best shoes to start with, I don't remember the first video I watched but I remember that I was immediately drawn to your content and watched a few non related videos with what I was searching for but I found out something better than I was looking for. I found Seth, a family man that loves running and is such an inspiration to me and other runners one of the best examples of how human behavior should be!! Congratulations Seth!! Love from Portugal, keep strong! ✌🏻
He helped me with shoe selection as well.
Up in the Pacific Northwest USA
QD: I was actually looking for Faith content on UA-cam and saw a video that you did a while back about cycling across the US. It led me to this channel. I had just started running again and it just clicked.
So proud of your win Seth!!! Catholic proud and Catholic strong!!! God bless you and your family
Thomas Philyaw Yes!
Phenomenal Seth, absolulety brilliant! Been following since sub 500 subs and your growth and running journey has been nothing short of incredible!
The FOD Runner you’re a good man Andy!
hey andy! lots here to take away for your upcoming marathon i bet...maybe we'll see you doing the PPM one day?!
stuart simpson definitely lots to learn for sure, as seth says.... trail marathons are totally different to roads! I’ve made a mental note not to have a gel before!
michael ormond robinson it’s been a great journey to follow mate
Race Announcer: "Demoor" is that Finnish?
Seth: No I'm just getting started.
😂😂😂😂😂
😜
I think I'm the only Finnish guy in the DGR :) Btw, the Finnish language doesn't have prepositions. So even technically DeMoor couldn't be Finnish. A lot of Finnish surnames end with -nen. Hence, in Finnish he would be called Muurinen, like the ex-soccer head coach of Finland Antti Muurinen. Seth DeMoor would be Seppo Muurinen in Finnish.
Baltsu Very cool, I had no idea. I think I remember him saying his name dates back to Denmark? Either way I had to seize the opportunity to jump on that joke. 😀 🇫🇮
@@briano9879 for me De Moor sounds like a Dutch or Flemish name. When we think about the fact that Dutch always have been sailors then it is not a surprise to see a name with mooring.
Danish names had the Scandinavian tradition where the surname comes from father's first name. So they normally are something like Andersen, Nielsen, Sørensen etc.
Question of the day.
Just a few days ago, maybe a month... I was, and I still aming to buy a good pair of shoes and I saw your channel... started to watch more of your videos and just felt in love with your energy.
Everybody can see and tell when we meet humble people, and for sore you are one. Stay strong, stay positive... Share your love for life, family and the sport that you practice, be your self, be you, be the butter on your bread
I started watching in October of 2018, back when I was a Junior in highschool just getting into XC. Been quite the journey. Unfortunately I haven’t run in almost 2 months, just injury and demotivation, and I haven’t even watched the channel in about a month, but this inspires me to get out there and run again!
I have been a subscriber for over a year. I have no idea exactly how I got to this page. I believe it was from a rabbit hole I followed from Sage Canaday’s page.
I will say, this is a more global, friendly, and consumer focused channel.
My favorite running UA-cam channel right now!
QD: Was looking for Hoka shoe reviews about 4 months ago, now I watch daily for all the positive energy and amazing content!
QD: started getting back into running about 6 months ago and was looking for shoes to start out with on the trails. Found your video on the wildhorse 5’s and got hooked after that. Keep up the hard work Seth and you will continue to be blessed. Keep buttering those Bobo’s 🧈🍞
It made my day yesterday! I was so happy...you would have thought that I won the race. I found this channel a LONG time ago....close to the beginning. When you come out to Cali to run the Marathon....you should ROCK that course since its a downhill profile...Olympic Qualifier for you. Congrats on Pikes, love the channel and keep on buttering the Bread. Stay safe out there...and Hi to true love and the kids !!! Take care
I know to take everything you see on the internet with a grain of salt, BUT I just love the way you and your wife are so supportive of each other!!!
QD: in may, the Runner’s knot video. Just started with running and saw this guy full of energy talking about shoes. I had to see more and haven’t stopped since.
Last year was my first year of cross country as a sophomore in High school and i ended up being a natural at it, running 20:00s and running 19:02 for our JV district race. For my first year, I was the JV captain and this surprised me, because I didn't sign up for cross country, the coach scouted me from baseball. I wanted to become better, because I felt that God put this opportunity in my hands so I started watching running videos, and yours were so helpful that I became a subscriber and have been watching for almost a year.
A few months ago I was searching for how to help my plantar fasciitis and found this channel and must’ve spent the whole day watching different videos and now I watch them daily
QD: I found your channel about a year ago Seth, I dont remember how many subscribers had then, but man I am happy that I did, you've taught us as runners so much and its a pleasure to be in your life "virtually". Thanks for all you do!
QD: I found your channel a few years ago! I ran the ascent in 2015. A few years later I was trying to find a video to show my friends what the trail was like. I stumbled upon your video and I’ve been following your journey since. The announcer for the race is a family friend. I’ve volunteered as part of his crew for several years and it’s always exciting to watch you cross the finish line at the top. Way to crush it this year on the marathon! Congrats on 100k.
QD- I found this channel back in february this year. I was searching for a review of the Nike Infinity Run and then stumbled over your vlogs. Since then I ran almost 1000 km and watch your videos as my daily motivation. I just started running in november of 2019 and now I am training for my first marathon next year!
Greetings from Germany!
Dude Seth, Don't worry about "bragging"!!!! We LOVE hearing about how excited you are after seeing the results of all your hard work!! This is a MAJOR accomplishment and you should "brag"/feel good about it all you want! You deserve it!!!!!!!! Super happy for you!!!! Keep on being you and keep on inspiring the masses!!!!
QD - I found this channel when I was searching to buy running shoes as I started getting into running myself. But what keeps me watching your videos is your genuine passion for the sport. That’s some thing I want to instill in myself.
Congrats Seth ! About 6 months now ... shoes, running motivation, staying up late ... you and Kofuzi have been amazing during pandemic times... inspiring me to run and stay motivated !
So oddly enough my wife introduced me to you when she was training for her half. We watched one of the original vlogs about mapping your training plan. A short time later I was looking for drone reviews and your channel came up. I haven’t left sir, thank you for the day to day content. I don’t finish a day without catching it. 2.5 years in and can’t wait to see what’s to come! Congrats!
QOD: I don’t know how many subscribers you had at the time, but it was a few weeks/months leading up to the Amsterdam Marathon. I am, seriously, so happy to have bumped into your channel Seth. Your reviews and your tips and your knowledge are what this running needs-wannabe needed from day one. I’ve been running since January of 2014 with a long break while pregnant w a giant baby & then bc of injury. Your videos have taught me A LOT and have fuelled me when my morale is kind of low. I love all of the content through all your social media and I am incredibly thankful for you and your family for sharing your journey with us all. So, yeah, let’s hope that I can, some day, have the incredible luck and fortune to join you and the community in one of your pre-race group runs be it here in Europe or in the States. Congratulations on a very well deserved victory and on breaking the 100k subscriber mark. Here’s to many 100k’s more 🥂🍾
Nov 2019. Was struggling to find shoes and was working through Achilles pain and found your vlog. By Dec of 2019, I was watching the vlog as I stretched and rolled out to loosen up my knee. Been almost daily since then. Love the vlog, the life stuff, and you general positivity and energy. You’re inspiring on many levels!
QOD: I'm 38, and I decided to take up running in January, so I came to youtube looking for any and all advice and tips I could find. And I stumbled across your vlogs and I've been a fan and follower ever since. Your enthusiasm and love for running is contagious and I owe my running progression to you, Seth! I'm still a greenhorn, but seeing you win Pikes Peak is a such a big motivator to keep pushing and keep digging! Onward and upward!!
I came across your CH via searching for the right way to run, breath, stretching for running etc etc. and then came to your CH, and I initially just had to shut you down. but then I came back because your energy is energy after all, and who better to listen to than someone who has ENERGY, so then I found you out again because you stuck in my head for some reason, and now, I've sat here all day trying to work while watching your vids. So, hardly working, but learning as much as I can. So for that - thank you ! Im not running to compete with my community on times, I am just running because I love it. Of course, hate it at the last kilometre, but I do my best and try to recall everything you and others like you share with us while out on the run. Thanks once again
QD: I started running last fall. Being a larger guy, with bad feet, I was looking for all the information I could get about running and shoes. That's when I came across your channel. Running has now become my church and gets me away from all the negative stuff going around. If it wasn't for running I’m not sure I would have gotten through the COVID restrictions. I look forward to your positive attitude everyday. Congratulations for your Pikes Peak WIN! I may or may not have gotten a little emotional watching the video.
Total inspiration! Looking at shoe reviews about 6 months ago but felt the channel was like a motivational community. Living in Scotland it’s easy to talk yourself out of getting the trainers on in winter, then I notice you out in the snow and realised there’s no excuse.
Keep it up, the honesty about how you feel really connects with me.
The first video I watched was the Amsterdam marathon video. Been watching ever since. The positive vibes are addictive!
So, happy for you making your dream become true! Great achievement Seth! Very well done!
not sure when, but you had under 1000. Don't recall why I clicked, but once I did I was hooked. your personality and approach to life was so enjoyable and even though you are a vey talented runner, you are never exclusive or condescending, you know that runners come at all levels of ability and it does not make them "less" of a runner. And watching your personal running journey, as all runners who stick with are truly on a journey was addicting.
My boyfriend found you when he was looking up running shoe reviews a few months ago. We stayed for your attitude, light, and motivation. Also, True Love is my role model now. :)
Found your channel after I ran the Pikes Peak Ascent last year and was searching for Pikes Peak videos on YT. Been watching daily ever since! Congrats on the W for the PPM and achieving one of your life long dreams. I first ran my first Ascent in 1987 and have no doubt you have a real shot at breaking Matt Carpenters's records. Keep working hard and thank for the inspiration you provide all of us!
Congrats man you're a stud. I found your channel when I was struggling with 5 kms. Yesterday I did 10 miles. 16.2km. Thanks for the motivation.
Awesome Josh thanks for being here!!
I found your channel accidently and just kept watching! You are so inspiring for all of us!
Found your page when I was looking up how to overcome IT band pain. I binge watched your videos for 3 months before the Disney World marathon. I've been hooked ever since watching, and learning from you.
QD: I think I started watching from about 10 months ago. After Kipchoge ran the unofficial new world record for the marathon on these crazy shoes, I was intrigued by what impact running shoes can have on performance. From there on I searched for running shoes reviews on UA-cam and found your channel.
Your enthousiasm made me even more excited, and I haven't missed a single vlog since!
I found this channel about two years ago but I don’t think I subscribed until a year later. I was plagued with running injuries in 2018 and your tips were very helpful in helping me have an injury-free 2019 and 2020! Thank you Seth!
I found the channel early summer of 2019. Had followed Ginger Runner for a while and came across your vlog and was hooked from the first episode that I found. Being a daily vlog was huge for me... the daily inspiration and your positive attitude have kept me a member of the DGR family. I’ve not missed an episode in over a year! Keep up the great work Seth. Glad to support you and the channel!
I found this channel which was about 50,000 subscribers. 2 My uncle told me to see you so I said why not and now I keep watching you.
Your channel found me, actually. Last year I was looking for information on running my second marathon. Since then I watch your videos whenever I can. Interesting, informative AND entertaining 😀 Keep up the good work! Kudos for your perfect race 👍 Peter from Germany here
QD about 2 months ago looking for shoe reviews. Watched every vlog since then. Every day, 10 minutes of positivity. I think you are so inspiring!
After your running career the ballett is waiting...nice pirouette...
Came across your vlog's 6 months ago...
Your energy is conducive to others.
Great job...
So grateful to watch the daily training and life of an elite athlete like you Seth! You earned this!Blessings from Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island. Canada.
My first vlog was "How to Run Faster: Threshold Training is KEY", I found it searching for videos about threshold runs. Bingewatched a lot of your old vlogs until I started watching them every day.
...found it in your build up to Amsterdam marathon and I was looking for running shoe reviews...I stayed because of you're energy and professionalism, you and kofuzi are like the dcrainmaker of running, awesome human beings and so knowledgeable and accessible about running 💪
QD: found you just after Amsterdam! Was searching UA-cam for training tips and info about the marathon racing experience and since ran my first half marathon distance and planning to run a unofficial marathon by the end of the year!
I was out on a long run, with a team mate, and he spoke highly of your input: Just before lockdown, I was training for the Manchester marathon but got injured 4 weeks before after a 20 mile race (old footballing injury - anterior cruciate). Obviously, the pandemic put a stop to the marathon anyway. I contemplated wrapping up. However, since having a hiatus at work and watching your channel the buzz is back - I did 16.42 in a 5k Time trial (previous 17.30) and last week 35.10 in a 10k (previous 37.45). Many thanks, Seth for your positive vibes that permeate back here in England.
QD: First seen the blog about 3 months ago, so been a big help through COVID and working from home. I'm from the UK, have got into running for the last 6 or 7 years or so, watching videos from Ben Parkes, Running Channel, etc...and run in Nike Pegasus (recently got 36's)...so either of those things may have led to your UA-cam videos! But I also come out to work near Fort Collins most years, so love seeing the Colorado mountains etc. (And my wife is also just completed Couch to 5k program too!)
Love that your videos are really "You", love for your family and area of the world. Even for us slower runners, you are a real inspiration. Recover well and dream big dreams...we'll be watching and cheering you (all) on!
Found this from shoe reviews and stayed for the genuine person and supporting family.
I found this channel searching for shoe reviews last year and have been watching ever since
QD: I found your channel about 10 months ago.you are an inspiration for so much people all over the world..Seth I have so much respect for you...greetings from San Salvador
QD: I found your channel while watching the New York City Marathon live trying to find my co worker in the race. I started running 2 years ago when my sister in law wanted to get back into running after having a baby. I did my first 5k with her. I never thought I would be a runner. I have struggled with it all my life and hated running the mile in middle school because I was always last. I gave my self a challenge and wanted to prove to myself that I could do it. It is a slow process but I am working my way up to a half marathon. I watch almost every video to inspire me to just get out the door and do it. Some days I don’t feel like going but watch a vlog and that gets me out the door. Congrats on Pikes Peak!
QD: Found you around the time the pandemic started. Was just searching some trail running videos and your channel popped up! I’ve watched every single video since. Look forward to watching a new video everyday during breakfast.
Been watching for at least 6months, maybe longer.
I was looking for shoe reviews and saw one of your vlogs.
Never looked back.
Thank you, from the UK 🏴
I first watched this youtube channel in December of 2018. I remember looking up on youtube the best shoes of 2018, and sure enough a vid of you came up that said "Make Your Case: Best Running Shoe of 2018" and I watched it and thought "huh this guy seems to know a lot about running shoes". Back then you were around 7,000 subscribers! And from then, I would start to watch your vids periodically, and after some time I finally subscribed, somewhere around 8,000 or so. Glad I was apart of your journey to 100,000!!
qod : been here from around 14k viewers. was looking for info on running shoes. found (the pretty girls of) Jamison Micheal, Ginger Runner, Kofuzi and you.
Nice to see you're still FLOATING after the win. This is one that will live with you for the rest of your life.
QD. Preparation for the Amsterdam marathon, searching for training/information and your name came up. Been following since then. Huge congrats on the Pike's peak marathon win. Very well deserved and a testament to all your efforts this year.
QD: I started running October 2018. At that time, running was really new to me. I never really did any structured running prior to this. I found your channel simply by searching UA-cam for running advice. Boy am I glad to have found you! I have continued watching ever since. I appreciate the home grown approach. Nothing too commercial like. Just sound running tips and advice. I think True-Love also makes this channel better. Keep doing what you're doing. You're an inspiration for many!!!
QD: I came across this channel when you only had about 15-20k followers and I believe I was searching shoe reviews and I watched a few of your videos and was hooked and inspired to really dive deep back into running.
I started watching last year during your ramp up for Amsterdam. I think you were nearing 50k subscribers. Discovered the vlog when searching for Hoka Rincon reviews. I was hooked by your overall enthusiasm for running, family and community. Hardly miss a day watching.
First found the channel on January 20 with Marathon Training (the 2 hour principle), followed by the How to Run Faster series, then I found the running shoe questions: road shoes and then same for trail shoes. What a ride, congrats SJD
QD - found this channel around October of last year. When I decided I would begin training for a 50mile ultra (this October). I hadn’t ever even run a marathon yet. My first marathon was the DGR Virtual in April! Cheers!
Seth: "I hope I'm not bragging"
He's honestly one of the most humble people out there for sure.
QD: I may have seen a few of your videos earlier but I started watching more regularly and subscribed around the end of 2019 or early 2020. I probably found the channel watching a video about some type of training suggestion or a review on a certain shoe
Seth! I met you when you came to Green Bay on your biking tour. Years later I was getting into UA-cam with Casey Neistat’s vlog and I remembered you and searched to see if you had a channel and caught you pretty early on your daily vlog. You’ve come a long way!!
The Daily Damien Hi Damien, remember when we use to message Seth about coffee & the Aero Press? It was a small family of subscribers back then....less than 300. Hope all is well with you and your beautiful family. Carol
Midway LOL Hey! Yes! I sure do! I think about some of those vlogs when he was considering quitting vlogging. Now look! I hope you and your are well! We’re very well... gearing up for school. Starts tomorrow!
I’m new to the channel after only recently getting back into running and I seem to be going through your whole back catalogue of vids. Watching has reignited my passion for running and I’m doing my first marathon next year.
I think I originally stumbled onto the channel when trying to compare Nike trail shoes and preparing for my first 50k trail race. UA-cam continued to suggest the channel and I just continued to follow you daily. Here since 30k followers or so.
QOD: I found this channel almost a year ago. Someone on the Slowtwitch triathlon forum mentioned it so I checked it out. I enjoyed Seth's energy and the fantastic running footage (especially the trail runs) and how the videos were put together. Other than watching an occasional shoe review video, I'm not too much into running-focused UA-cam channels but I watch this one pretty much every day.
Covid and closed gyms got me hooked on running. Loosing some weight along the way is a big bonus as well. Found your channel while searching for shoes that considered. Now I watch most of your videos, keep up the good work! Big ups from Norway
Congratulations Seth, you've worked so hard for this. Truly inspirational.
QD: A friend at a running group I attended mentioned your videos about a year ago and I've been watching ever since.
I‘ve been watching your videos for about two years now- not regularly, but still quite often and out of mere interest. I didn’t even run myself at that time. But since I started running myself only last winter, I can now rewatch all of it and see it with completely different eyes. Which is quite strange. Btw: You helped me out a lot, especially in my first weeks of running. Thank you so much for your awesome work and effort! Greetings from Bavaria!
I had a really good day on the marathon. Especially on the downhill which has been weak for me. Shaved 2 hours off my last time in 2018. Really inspired when I saw you on the way down and someone made a comment that you had a you tube channel. I found it researching 'Downhill running techniques.' Great work!!
Well deserved! No bragging, just great race insight. Thanks for the real inside scoop!
QD - discovered your channel about 2 months ago as I was planning a new cycle of training and looking for tips and ideas. Ever since I’ve been adding 2 hour mid-week runs 3 times/month! I ran a 5k trail race today and thought about your mantra - eyes up, pump arms, quick feet. I also watched your live stream yesterday while driving up to the mountain - congrats on 100k!!
I discovered your channel during the lockdown. My gym was closed so thought I'd do more running instead. I then became intrigued about trail running and ultramarathons after watching some videos on UA-cam, and the UA-cam algorithm must have suggestions one of yours. I can't remember which one, but I really like the enthusiasm, the openness, and the content is great too!
QD Just found this channel searching for shoe reviews. I was preparing to hike the grand canyon and my feet were needing something new... But this channel is so fun, I just keep clicking the next video!
QOD: I think I stumbled across you last October searching for how to run faster or how to breath while running videos lol I was only 2-3months in as a runner. Definitely learned a lot watching your videos. Congrats on the Win and 100k subscribers! Well deserved, hands down the best running content on UA-cam.
After a race it’s fun to sit around and talk about it. I love hearing your thoughts. You put in the work and then you did so well. I’m enjoying the moment with you.
QD: 2-3 months ago and I was looking for resources on running a mile as I was training for my first mile race in 25 yrs. My first vlog was you running your mile time trial on your birthday. I also bought the Saucony Endorphin Speed given your review and could not be happier with them. HUGE CONGRATS SETH AND TRUE LOVE!
Found the channel about a year and a half ago. Random training vlog popped up on my feed just from other running content I suppose. Found the channel to be so refreshing so it didn't take me long to subscribe!
QOTD: I discovered it after the Cirque Series - Snowbird race last year (2019). It took me nearly 4 hours to finish it. I can't remember how I actually stumbled on the channel, but I know you had won it. I was just getting into running at that time so I probably was reading up on some forum after the results. Stoked to be a part of this tough, your energy and optimism are extremely contagious and have motivated me to lace up the shoes on several occasions!
Want to say I started watching around the pandemic or so?! So not long but so happy I found it! I believe it showed up as a random suggestion based off other things I was watching! Love the info you share but more importantly the energy and positivity!
QD: Around a year ago I was searching for ankle rehab advice and came across your video of 5 exercises on the blue physio cushion. I still do these exercises before runs and I’ve barely missed a video since. Well done on the win and reaching 100,000 subs.
Congrats on the amazing results (Pikes Peak and 100k)!
Found the channel a couple of years ago when I came back to running after a 17 year absence due to falling out of love with it in high school. First found it when looking at trail shoe reviews when I first started buying kit, but the variety of the content kept me coming back to this channel over other some others. The energy and enthusiasm that you have for your running and your youtube family and the honesty that you portrait it with is inspiring.
Found this channel while searching reviews for vaporfly 4% flyknit last 2018. And I found more than a shoe review. Inspiration, motivation, training knowledge/principle.
Thank you Seth!
Congratulations Seth! I can’t think of anyone who deserves this accomplishment more than you. You are one of the most powerful and positive influences in the running/fitness community.
I ran up Barr Trail on the 22nd from Manitou to the Peak. My time was 4 hours and it was one of the hardest runs of my life. Really looking forward to applying everything you teach on one way or another through my training process. Hopefully next year I can cut my time down by an hour with all your tips and positivity in mind!
QD: About two years ago, I saw your review of the baby blues and I just happened to have the same shoes, I watched some other videos, and here I am, incorporating your videos into my daily routine. Heartfelt thanks for your truly astonishing work!
I found this channel last month. I was looking for running plans and found your channel. I am glad that I did.
QoD: my first VLOG was the Nike Peg36 Trail review. I saw the shoes on the Nike store and searched for reviews on UA-cam and cam across your channel. Your positivity for running came across and I have watched ever since. 👍
Wow Seth, I saw your splits on Strava and was astonished at the pace you maintained. Inspirational. Well done, and congrats to you on accomplishing a lifelong dream. I grew up in Co Springs so that area will always have a special place in my heart. So cool to see you dominate and cash in on all the hard work you've been putting in! SALUTE. Much respect.
I started watching for training for the run rabbit run 100...I was interested in that race, so started watching your training tips....been a loyal watcher since that race.
QD: Good Job Seth!!! I found the channel in late 2018 when you published the runners knot video, I watched the vlog for about a month after that. But recently in early 2020 I rediscovered the channel because I was looking for running shoe review videos.
Seth you're an absolute machine. What a race. Super cool to bring the Pikes Peak trophy to Denver!
QD: I found this channel last year August, pretty sure I was searching for mountain running content as I had just gotten into running and knew there were awesome trails near me. I know that your videos of running 14ers and the insights into your training are what hooked me to stick around.
I found the channel for over 2 years with the Peg Turbo v1 Video. What a amazing evolution 👍
QD: I found the channel in January of this year, just ahead of my first full marathon. Was looking for content to help me know what to expect and came across your Amsterdam Marathon videos. Hooked ever since! Thanks for all the great content and insight!
QD: yourself and Sage Canaday are my go to running channels; you must have been put into my UA-cam algorithm as I watched more of sages videos. I subscribed during your coverage of the Olympic trials.
Same. Sage's channel lead me here!
QD: found you early on along with Jamie. I loved the different styles and perspectives. Your candidness is what makes it enjoyable.
